Program Objectives
Mechanic technicians have the opportunity to work in a vast area, from computer aided design and production to line planning, from marine affairs to aviation. The mechanic technicians program at the School of Advanced Vocational Studies deals with the
design, production and maintenance of a variety of equipment, machinery, devices, instruments, system and processes, which are needed in daily life, as well as production.
Moreover, students will be required to complete an internship of a total of 30 business days, where they will reinforce their theoretical knowledge with practice and seize the opportunity to meet their future workplaces and coworkers, while they are still
students.
Graduates of this program can assume the title of mechanic technician and work at a number of institutions and firms, working in all kinds of areas with different procedures, related to machinery. They can work at many governmental institutions as a technician
or find a job in the private sector. Such a technician can work at all kinds of public and private institutions that execute machining/non-machining production and technical services. Graduates can also open their own workplaces. They can also find
job opportunities in technological infrastructure companies, R&D institutions, technological consultancy and execution companies, production companies, service companies, lighting sector and industrial control and automation companies.
